It's pretty ironic that the JOBS JOBS JOBS president can't seem to hire anyone…..

"I will be the greatest jobs president that god has ever created", Donald Trump. But, he's only willing to hire the super rich and oil/banking executives  :laugh:

You nearly said something relevant by accident.
If you hire poor people…. you are at very high risk for those people to be bribed or coerced by money.  Even wealthy people such as the Clintons and Obama will pretty much say anything if paid enough money to do it.

I'm assuming you have statistics to back your claim? Or evidence? Of course you don't!

There are some things that are self-evident.. such as that you are a vagina. 
Obviously, it is far easier to bribe someone who has $10,000 in the bank than it is to bribe someone with a billion in the bank. 
That brings up another issue.. if someone is an activist, they are not going to have a lot of money unless they are corrupt, and they could easily be bought by someone like George Soros - who is insane and worth $25 billion.

I will not stoop to your level of name calling, this is "politics & debate" not politics & rhetoric.

The Kushner family real estate company is seeking a $250 million loan to pay back Chinese investors in a New Jersey luxury tower, but it is finding some major US banks wary of the controversies around its White House links and the visa program used to attract the investors.

Kushner Cos. is sending out feelers for the loan against its 50-story Trump Bay Street in Jersey City. It would keep $50 million and use the rest to repay the investors and pay off a mortgage on the building, according to a person familiar with the negotiations who asked not to be identified because the talks are private.

The company, which belongs to the family of Jared Kushner, President Trump’s son-in-law and senior adviser, funded about a quarter of the $194-million development through the EB-5 visa program that grants wealthy foreigners green cards in exchange for investing in US projects.

Some large US banks are shying away from the transaction because of the property’s connection to Kushner and the visa program, the person said. Unregulated lenders and non-US banks will probably step into the breach. A Kushner Cos. spokesman declined to comment.

Kushner stepped down as CEO of Kushner Cos. so that he could serve the USA and work for his father in law Donald Trump.  Jared Kushner no longer is associated with Kushner Cos.  So why do you even post about it?  It has zero relevance.  But then again, I can't recall the last time one of your comments had any relevance.

@wrestling82:

Is he on the same schedule as Obama was?

Way Ahead!  :cheesy2:

He has let corporate America down…..just like everyone else.  Trump is a total failure in  life and the presidency.

Anita Sarkeesian tried that excuse too, but the police (or was it the FBI?) said there was no credible threats.  She made like 10 time more on the insurance payout for "missing" the speaking engagement than if she had actually done it.

Sen. Richard Burr (R-NC) on Thursday indicated that he’s not optimistic about the Senate’s chances to pass a comprehensive bill to repeal and replace Obamacare this year.

“I don’t see a comprehensive health-care plan this year,” he told North Carolina television station WXII 12 News.

Burr also said that the House bill is “dead on arrival” in the Senate.

The senator’s comments come after Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) said last week that he’s not sure how the Senate will pass an Obamacare repeal bill.

“I don’t know how we get to 50 at the moment,” he told Reuters. “But that’s the goal.”

Even though I posted a video thoroughly explaining this yesterday, it seems to have eluded you.
When a bill passes in the house, it is sent to the senate - where the whole process starts over again.  So, in essence, all bills that arrive at the Senate's doorstep are DOA. They rework them - which I would admit is a silly process, but that is how it works.  Reagan was famous for wanting a "line item veto" in which the President could veto just certain parts of legislation before signing it.  That would give tremendous power to the President and was not enacted. 
Of course it will be tough to get a bill through the Senate.  You know that not one of the libtard Democrats will vote for it because no matter what is in the bill, they will vote NO because they are the party of NO and very tightly unified.  Although the republicans have the majority in the Senate, there are a few flakey republican senators who withhold their support on bills to blackmail the country to get specific changes to the bill that benefit their own state. 
Meanwhile, the democrats are offering NO input on how to fix the failed disaster known as Obamacare.  Obamacare is already dead.  Insurers have abandon it en masse.  Some have suggested that they should just let Obamacare fade away, and not replace it with anything.  That might actually be the best solution.  Socialism and communism haven't been particularly successful in these areas.  I can think of one exception to that.  Communist Cuba has a great health care system.  The reason for that is that they are a dictatorship.. and they control the healthcare industry with an iron fist.  Doctors don't get to be multi-mega-millionaires in Cuba.  People can't sue for mega millions in malpractice cases in Cuba.

So, once again.. as always.. you have made an ass of yourself Dr Withering Ass.

Oh that would be wonderful and very amusing.

@Drwas:

The White House has been struggling to explain why exactly Jared Kushner had several secret contacts in December with the Russians, including one in which he met with the head of a Russian state-run bank mid-month.

Suffice it to say, none of the explanations put forward by the Trump administration add up, and now the bank, Vnesheconombank (VEB), has provided an account that is directly at odds with the White House version of events, writes the Washington Post.

The bank maintained this week that the session was held as part of a new business strategy and was conducted with Kushner in his role as the head of his family’s real estate business. The White House says the meeting was unrelated to business and was one of many diplomatic encounters the soon-to-be presidential adviser was holding ahead of Donald Trump’s inauguration.

First off, neither of those scenarios necessarily plays well for Kushner.

A diplomatic meeting would have provided the bank, which has been under U.S. sanctions since 2014, a chance to press for rolling back the penalties even as the Obama administration was weighing additional retaliations against Moscow for Russia’s interference in the U.S. election.

A business meeting between an international development bank and a real estate executive, coming as Kushner’s company had been seeking financing for its troubled $1.8 billion purchase of an office building on Fifth Avenue in New York, could raise questions about whether Kushner’s personal financial interests were colliding with his impending role as a public official.

Did they have a sale on airplane glue at Walmart this week?  I think you've been sniffing it.
That story is total nonsense including the title you stuck on it. 
You conveniently left out this line:
"Putin’s spokesman, Dmitry Peskov, said that the bank’s activities “have nothing to do with the Kremlin.” Peskov, like Trump, has frequently dismissed revelations about the meetings as “fake news” and “a witch hunt.”"

But that is not the big issue.  The big issue is that these alleged meetings were in December..  Hmm.. about 6 weeks AFTER the election.  I fail to see how a meeting 6 weeks AFTER the election helps get Trump elected? 
The story sort of answers it's own premise.  AFTER the election, Sheik Obama decided to punish Russia with a slew of new sanctions.. which is something unprecedented in the history of the country.  Trump was elected on Nov 8.. and Obama is very much a "lame duck" at that point, but is issuing sanctions against Russia AFTER the election?  One might assume that Kushner assured whoever that Obama's sanctions would be terminated just as soon as the President elect Trump had Obama's ass evicted from the White House. 
I'm surprised the libtards have not complained that Trump had a black family evicted from a house In Washington D.C. that they had resided in for 8 years.

By the way.. since when is it a crime to talk to the Russians?  They have not been communist for 26 years.  Obama was doing his best to re-ignite a cold war to dump on Trump.  Since virtually every media outlet had predicted a landslide victory for Slippery Hillary, it would be silly for the Russians to stick their heads out and get punished by that bitch once she took over for the regime of Sheik Obama.  So.. whatever meetings happened AFTER Nov. 8th are irrelevant.

@Drwas:

President Donald Trump claimed Thursday that tax legislation is advancing through Congress — even though no such bill yet exists.

“Our tax bill is moving along in Congress, and I believe it’s doing very well,” Trump said Thursday afternoon in a Rose Garden speech announcing that the U.S. will pull out of the Paris global climate pact.

Although no such legislation exists, Trump said, “I think a lot of people will be very pleasantly surprised.”

“The Republicans,” he continued, “are working very, very hard. We’d love to have support from the Democrats, but we may have to go it alone. But it’s going very well.”

The Senate is working on a health care bill to repeal and replace Obamacare. But even Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell acknowledged late last month, “I don't know how we get to 50 votes. Lawmakers are expected to tackle tax reform after health care, although Congress faces a number of looming fall deadlines, including funding the government by October.

Apparently you have no idea how bills begin, how they are processed, and how they are enacted. 
This won't help you at all, but might help some others who have active brain cells instead of shit for brains.

I will post how the process works after I do a bit of research.. which is something you should try for once.
